Spare parts

I just swapped out my drums for discs. I did the 73-87 parts swap without the crossmember.

I guessing no one will want the drums or spindle parts, but is there a need for the arms or the drag link or the stock springs? I am not trying to sell them, I am trying to decide whether to scrap them or not.

Re: Spare parts

I passed up a set of newly rebuilt brakes for a '67 several years ago (the3 guy installed discs)...and I am still kicking myself over that one. Most guys are going to leave the drums on the truck because they will never get around to a disc upgrade or want to leave it stock. Keep them and sell them to someone that is just looking to replace some old worn out brakes. Price them low enough to be attractive and make someone happy.

I would be incredibly happy to have the center drag link from a C10! I have a C20, and I'm finding out the inner tie rod ends are different, so I have to, well, blah blah, blah - I really, really need a C10 center drag link!

Re: Spare parts

That was a month ago. The parts are gone now.
